The $50.00 KCSD activity fee is due now. This is different than the $100.00 deposit that went towards uniforms/equipment/etc. This can be in cash or a check made out to KCSD. There is an accompanying form that can be found here.
If you have not RSVP'd for the preview BBQ next Thursday night, please do so immediately. Friends of Music needs a headcount as they don't (and won't) buy extra food that is not needed. You can RSVP here. This show is very ambitious. We are putting more on the field than we have ever attempted in the past. We will absolutely need parent volunteers at home games, away games, and competitions. Everyone is important to this production. If you haven't signed up to volunteer, you can do that here. Due to the impending storm, we are cancelling evening block and ending rehearsal at 5 PM tonight.
Parents, please pick up students at 5 PM. Parents: There are many moving pieces to this organization (literally and figuratively), and as such, we rely on parent volunteers to assist us football games and competitions throughout our season. There are a variety of things we need help with before, during, and after our events, and we greatly appreciate any help you can offer.
Please click here for more information and to sign up for specific jobs. Thank you! Our Parent Preview BBQ will take place next Thursday, August 24 at 6:30 PM.
Please click here to RSVP. Parents: be sure to include your students as well as yourselves so we have an accurate head count for food. We also appreciate any help you can offer with setup, cooking, and cleanup. Band Camp beings on Monday, August 14, 8 AM at Kennett Middle School.

We still have about 20 members who have not signed up for a uniform fitting. Tomorrow morning (Wed 8/9) from 9 AM - 11 AM in the KHS Band Room is your last chance. At this point you don't have to sign up on the form, but make sure you come during that time to complete your fitting.
